On work days I settle down with the stitch journal in the evenings. I don’t mind the dark nights at all – actually I prefer night to be dark. I don’t get on well with the endlessly light summer evenings at all.

There have been some golden days.

Today was a very rainy day.

The purple day in between is rows of blanket stitch, also in silk thread.
Sometimes I like to look at the other side of the stitch journal. I really like the fact that this is just one piece of cloth, no lining or backing, so everything is visible: the good, the bad, the ugly, and all the loose ends.

There are some days that I’m glad to see the back of.

I did wonder whether the purple represented a storm – meteorological or emotional!
Haha, no, nothing intentionally implied by the purple – though subconsciously it’s possible!
